Chapter 237 Beast Master (Second Update)
“call……”

A cool breeze blew past my face, and then several figures attacked almost at the same time.

There is no nonsense opening line, nor the famous scene where the villain dies because of talking too much. A ruthless strangulation begins.

Those who took action were all members who frequently cooperated with the Changchun Society. Their professions and curses coordinated with each other, and their every move was extremely tacit.

“Shhhhh…”

There was a rapid sound of breaking wind in the air, and I saw a beginner firing more than ten crossbows at once.

The crossbow cart’s mechanism rotates and can fire twenty-eight arrows at the same time.

Special spell patterns flashed on each arrow, and in just a moment, the sky suddenly darkened.

Countless sharp blades fell like a rainstorm.

Seeing this, Xiao Ran strode forward towards the direction of the rain of arrows. At the same time, he waved the [Golden Cloak·Horizontal Chain] on his body to block in front of him and turned it. The light golden cloak covered Xiao Ran like a shield.

At the same time, the privilege of [Golden Cloak] [Golden Bucket Turning] is also activated.

Privilege 2: Golden Bucket Turn

When the cloak is attacked by metal, it can quickly devour the metal, absorb the power and properties of the metal, and temporarily increase the defense of the cloak. The stronger the absorbed metal, the higher the defense.

Duration: 10 seconds

Cooling time: 3 hours
(Note 1: The cloak is very heavy, and wearing it will increase your physical strength consumption.)
I saw dense arrows piercing into the cloak and then being swallowed by the cloak.

In just ten seconds, the cloak swallowed up countless arrows, and then Xiao Ran draped it over his body.

The beheading sword in his hand suddenly created a wave of air and rushed towards the left.

“Don’t let him break through!!”

As the saying goes, a trapped beast will fight to the bitter end. The closer it gets to this point, the more people dare not be careless.

As various cursed objects were activated, they continued to attack Xiao Ran.

After receiving various assistance, several masters of horizontal training surrounded Xiao Ran, constantly turning and changing positions to fight with Xiao Ran.

They all knew that Xiao Ran’s swordsmanship was horrific, so they didn’t dare to choose to fight hard at this time, but they surrounded him tightly.

“Boy, you didn’t win the fight last time, don’t even think about leaving this time!!”

Taurus raised the big sword and rushed towards Xiao Ran again.

This time, without the assistance of the puppet on the ring, Xiao Ran had no intention of fighting him head-on. Relying on his lightness skill [Drifting with the Wind], he moved left and right, as if he was going to break out from the left side to escape.

But suddenly Xiao Ran felt his body sink suddenly, as if there were two thirty-pound stones on his legs.

Immediately afterwards, his own movement speed dropped suddenly.

A faint black halo enveloped Xiao Ran’s body. It was a beginner who used a cursed object to cast a privileged curse on Xiao Ran.

“Privilege: Stone Curse!”

Stone Curse: The target’s movements are slowed by 30%, but their strength and constitution are slightly increased.

Duration: 30 seconds

After being affected by the curse, Jinniu immediately seized the opportunity and raised his sword to chop over. The two had fought before, and Xiao Ran knew Jinniu’s swordsmanship. He swept the sword in his hand and knocked him back with one blow.

But immediately afterwards, Xiao Ran’s eyes suddenly went dark and a black mark appeared above his head.

A beginner was seen holding a metal playing card in his hand and pointing it at Xiao Ran. On the card was a blindfolded clown.

D-level cursed item [Grudge Poker·Psychic]

“Privilege 1: Ghost Card”

Evil Spirit Card: Deprives the target of one of its senses at random.

Duration: 15 seconds.

“He’s blind, let’s go together!”

As he spoke, Heng Lian, who was surrounding Xiao Ran, could not wait to take action, and murderous intent came from all directions.

“court death!!”

Xiao Ran snorted coldly. Losing his eyes did not mean that he lost the ability to fight back. Having consumed the Eight Treasures, he had sharp ears and eyes. Relying on the [Golden Cloak] to cover most of his body, the big knife in his hand burst out from bottom to top, and a terrifying airflow enveloped his body. He just closed his eyes and charged forward.

No one expected that Xiao Ran would become even more ferocious after losing his sight. It was only at this moment that they realized the horror of Xiao Ran’s swordsmanship.

A sweep of the knife formed a captivating turbulence. Even if you were not cut, as long as you got close to it, you would be affected by this airflow, and your consciousness and thoughts would seem to be pulled out of your body.

“Don’t!!”

The beginner standing in front of Xiao Ran didn’t even have time to defend himself in such a hurry that his consciousness was caught up in the wave of swords. In the next second, he was chopped away by Xiao Ran’s sword.

“Get out of the way!!”

Jinniu knew Xiao Ran’s strength very well, so he roared and rushed towards Xiao Ran with sword in both hands.

“Bang bang bang…”

Taurus was a little overwhelmed by the series of sword clashes, but this guy refused to give in and was determined to fight Xiao Ran head-on.

Every collision puts him in danger, but his own attributes are constantly improving.

In just a blink of an eye, more than 10 points of attributes were temporarily stolen from Xiao Ran.

As one gained strength while the other lost strength, Taurus’ eyes became more and more fiery, and the sword in his hand swung faster and faster, and he actually felt that he was on par with Xiao Ran.

At the same time, two more curse halos continued to fall on Xiao Ran.

“Degradation Curse: Reduce the target’s strength by 10%!”

“Blood Heat: Increases target’s energy consumption by 30%!” Xiao Ran’s breathing began to get heavier, and the knife in his hand also began to become heavy.

A good tiger cannot defeat a pack of wolves, and a random punch can kill a master.

Seeing that Xiao Ran’s condition began to deteriorate, those masters of horizontal training who were hiding aside could no longer hold back and took action.

However, they did not attack Xiao Ran. After all, that blood-stained sword was no joke. Instead, they kept feeding Taurus with moves, allowing Taurus to quickly steal their attributes and increase Taurus’s strength.

With the participation of many people, the professional talents of the Taurus Thief began to be brought into play.

When Xiao Ran’s broadsword collided with Taurus’s broadsword again, with a dull sound, a huge force came from the blade, making Xiao Ran feel his arm numb, and then his whole body flew backwards lightly.

“kill him!!”

Before you even hit the ground, several knives have already slashed at you, trying to kill you while you’re sick.

“Bang bang bang!!”

In an instant, the blade slashed at Xiao Ran, but these attacks only touched Xiao Ran in an instant.

All of them were blocked by the light golden [Golden Cloak].

Privilege 1: Gilded Body

Once activated, the cloak will quickly wrap around the body, forming an all-round armor.

It has extremely strong defense against physical attacks. The stronger the physical attack, the higher the defense.

Duration: 30 seconds

(Note: Ineffective against non-physical attacks.)
This was the last life-saving card in Xiao Ran’s hand. With the sound of crackling, all these attacks were blocked by [Golden Cloak·Horizontal Refining].

Xiao Ran somersaulted on the ground and fell heavily.

However, at this time, the negative states on his body also gradually expired.

His vision also returned.

As soon as his vision was restored, Xiao Ran raised the [Eight Treasures Flowing Light Mirror·Scholar]

Privilege 1: Flash Escape
After activation, it will emit a dazzling light to interfere with the vision of surrounding enemies, and instantly escape to the place where the mirror shines.

Cooling time: 10 minutes
Privilege 2: Refraction

After activation, the next time you use the Flash Escape, it will split into an equal number of clones to interfere.

(The number of clones is based on the number of people disturbed by the strong light of the glare escape!)

“activation!!”

As Xiao Ran thought of it, a dazzling light suddenly burst out from his body.

Every step of Xiao Ran’s movements seemed to have been rehearsed thousands of times in his mind, and even the direction of his rolling on the ground seemed to have been carefully calculated in his mind.

Before everyone could prepare, a white light flashed and eight or nine figures of Xiao Ran dispersed in all directions.

This time is obviously different from last time.

There were too many scattered figures, too scattered, and everyone immediately used their own methods to disperse these clones.

But only three or five can be dispersed in a short period of time.

Just when everyone was stunned, a figure jumped up from behind, and the figure was like Kunpeng.

As soon as the figure moved, the huge sense of oppression he felt made everyone nervous.

The leader who had been hiding in the back finally moved.

Although she still looked like the old and frail Grandma Seven, when the leader left, everyone felt a sense of oppression as if a tiger was descending from the mountain.

Xiao Ran’s real body had just run a few steps forward and was about to use the scholar to summon the bronze warhorse to escape.

He was overwhelmed by this suffocating feeling of oppression. When he turned around, he saw Grandma Qi walking towards him, and the expression on his face changed.

“The old thief is waiting for me here!!”

It happened in a flash. Seeing that the Seventh Grandma was already approaching him, Xiao Ran opened his mouth and spat out a breath of corpse gas at her.

As he exhaled this breath of damaging divine wind, he immediately formed seals with his fingers and used the corpse binding technique of [Record of Corpse Unbinding], causing the corpse qi to suddenly form a net and cover Grandma Qi.

Xiao Ran had already made up his mind that he had no intention of confronting the leader head-on.

Just to delay a little and buy myself time to escape.

But she didn’t want to face Xiao Ran’s methods. This Seventh Grandma just showed a sneer on her face.

“Ow!!”

Grandma Qi opened her palms, and her skinny arms turned into the head of a giant tiger with drooping eyes. It let out a deafening tiger roar at Xiao Ran with its eyes wide open. In an instant, the corpse aura that had been surging out disappeared.

C-level occupation [Beast]

According to the description on the [Entry-level Occupational Information Sheet] provided by the Changchun Association, this occupation D Beastmaster can transform himself into various wild beasts. When combined with the power of the cursed object, the ability of the wild beasts will be greatly enhanced.

And when it comes to [Transformation into Beast], it is even stronger, just like Grandma Qi, who can transform into a tiger with one hand, carrying with her the suffocating power of a tiger, making all evils retreat away, without any taboos.

Immediately afterwards, the tiger’s mouth bit Xiao Ran’s shoulder, and suddenly a heart-wrenching pain came. The flesh on the shoulder was pierced by the tiger’s teeth, tearing open a bloody wound.

“Boom!!”

This time, Xiao Ran couldn’t even hold the [Guillotine] in his hand and fell to the ground.

The powerful force lifted Xiao Ran up into the air, and blood dripped down…
